What happens
Talking to a Stranger (1966) is a British television drama, written by John Hopkins for the BBC, which consists of four separate plays recounting the events of one weekend from the viewpoints of four members of the same family. The play cycle was directed by Christopher Morahan and produced by Michael Bakewell and first shown in the Theatre 625 series on BBC 2. Unlike many 1960s BBC productions, the series survived intact, and has been rebroadcast and released on home media. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
